Fantasy Standings

In FF:
Sitting at 5-7. Win this week and I am playoff bound. Lose and I am not. I'm playing GTL. They not too good.

In FB:
3-1-0. I'm technically in 2nd place, first in my division.
Dwight Howard is a mary.

The Game

Took OSSS to his first NFL game last night, Cowboys-Giants. He's a big Cowboy fan, so he was pretty pumped.

SoulSlam hasn't been to an NFL game in about 18 years I think. It was a good night. OSSS had an awesome evening. A great memory for SoulSlam.

Fantasy Hoops

Since my FF team is pretty terrible (drafting Adrian Peterson in 1st round will do that!), we turn to FANTASY BASKETBALL!

SoulSlam plays FB as Chaos Reigns (catchy, huh?). I've got this as my starting 6 for the week:

Chris Paul/ Clippers

John Wall/ Wizards

Dwight Howard/ Rockets

Kemba Walker/ Hornets

D'Andre Jordan/ Clippers

Andre Jordan/ Pistons

Got a couple of players on bench that switch in and out, namely Thaddeus Young/ Timberwolves and M. Gortat/ Wizards.

I'm sitting pretty at 2-1. But Mr. Dwight Howard is a day to day mess and killing me.

#Chill

Wow it's cold. As cold as it is though, TG we ain't near Lake Erie. The Weather Channel has them getting up to 6' of the white stuff in some places.

That is one bad start to winter, even though it's still autumn.

The $325MM Man

Mike Giancarlo Stanton signed a MEGADEAL.

Now you know why all them baseball academies are pumping out lessons like M-A-D.

Good luck Mike Giancarlo.

#Movember

That's when you grow a mustache for a good cause. SoulSlam has a full beard and 'stache right now. basically because I am tired of shaving everyday.

Let's salute some great 'staches!

RIP Freddie.

Best 'stache in baseball!

BURGUNDY!

Sparse Walrus "stache!

Coach K!

I May Rename This

In honor of Alex Rodriguez. Contemplating calling this blog "Alex" or "A-Rod" or "13" or something.

In our thoughts, in our hearts, on the back page of every daily newspaper in NYC...

"Like the Amazing Kreskin, Alex challenges his mind to believe his lies"

The Led Zeppelin Post

I read/saw/heard that Richard Branson is offering the remaining members (Robert Plant, Jimmy Page, John Paul Jones) of Led Zeppelin a boatload of dough to perform again (with the late John Bonham's son Jason on drums). And that Page and Jones are signed, sealed, delivered. But Plant may not be in on idea.

Now, I've been a fan since time began...one of my all-time faves. And there are those that point to the Queen tour with Adam Lambert as an example of what could happen. Maybe Led Zeppelin with _____________ singing.

Well, Queen is touring with somebody else because Freddie Mercury is dead. The plain and simple fact is that Led Zeppelin w/o Robert Plant isn't Led Zeppelin. My two cents.

Just Keeps Getting Better

"Markin' my territory like a wolf"...

This Is Why

A-Rod!

AND THIS!

Election Day, Your Civic Duty

If you don't vote, then shaddup.

Local races abound. Good luck to those who deserve to win. Don't be a roadbump.

That Extra Hour

It might not be the greatest thing ever, but that extra hour of sleep you get when the clocks turn back in fall is pretty awesome.

In a quick aside...the Mets have done absolutely nothing yet for 2015. Except hire a hitting coach. Note to Mets: WE ARE WAITING.
